Instead, it will be **activated by NOTAM** (Notice to Airmen). This is a safety message system that alerts pilots when airspace conditions change.\n- **Who controls it**: The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) manages the area.\n- **Entry rules**: You cannot fly through this zone without explicit permission from the RAAF and a clearance from air traffic control.\n\n**Why this matters**\n\nThis gives the military flexibility to use the airspace for training or operations only when needed, rather than blocking it off on a fixed schedule. Civilian pilots must check for NOTAMs before flying near this area to see if it is currently active."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/instrument-exercising-air-services-regulations-1995-aeru-05-04","history":"/api/acts/instrument-exercising-air-services-regulations-1995-aeru-05-04/history","analysis":"/api/acts/instrument-exercising-air-services-regulations-1995-aeru-05-04/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/instrument-exercising-air-services-regulations-1995-aeru-05-04/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/instrument-exercising-air-services-regulations-1995-aeru-05-04/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/instrument-exercising-air-services-regulations-1995-aeru-05-04/documents"}}
